The Dvořák Hager & Partners law firm changes its name to Eversheds Sutherland

After 15 years in the market, the Dvořák Hager & Partners law firm will change its name to Eversheds Sutherland this March.

“Joining Eversheds Sutherland was a major step forward for our office, our people and particularly our clients. We have become part of a large international organization and are glad that we will now also bear its name,” said Stanislav Dvořák, Managing Partner.

The merger with Eversheds Sutherland gives clients access to professional legal services not only in Central and Eastern Europe, but also on the global market. The ownership of the firm, with its more than fifty lawyers in Prague and Bratislava, as well as its management, remains unchanged.
